Chapter 5 Patterns on Chains

When the note was taken out, there was already some yellowing, yes, after all, it had been at least 7 years, and there were only a few simple words on the unfolded note, which was the master's handwriting,

Chengyi, if the arrangement of fate wants you to discover this note, then the secret master will no longer keep it, the secret is on the metal chain, flow through the metal chain with colored water, and then dry it You will naturally see this secret, whether you can understand it or not, it depends on the arrangement of fate.

I held the note and felt inexplicable, even if I found the secret, can I understand it, it depends on the arrangement of fate? But I still habitually put away the note, the master left me too little memorial, he is a person who doesn't even have a photo, even if it is a work ID, he has been licensed, and it is a sketch of him!

Later, I don't know if he tore it off, but I didn't find it.

As for whether the master has an ID card, this question is a mystery, anyway, I haven't seen it!

It's better to do anything, everyone saw this note, and Brother Chengxin stood up without saying a word, and said, "I'll go out and buy a bottle of ink." ”

There is colored water, and ink is naturally the most suitable, and after saying that, Brother Chengxin went out.

There are only three people left in the room, Qin Huai and Ruyue are quite compatible, and when they encounter this kind of thing full of fog, they are excited as if they are talking about something.

I sat on the sofa seemingly calmly, and how calm my heart was, thinking like this, I couldn't help but take out a metal chain in front of me and look at it carefully.

I found the metal chain to be quite heavy to start with, at least heavier than an iron chain! And it is unusually hard, and the take-out also has a certain degree of flexibility, if there is no flexibility, how can it be built into a chain?

I don't know about metal, and I don't know what material it is, but I think this silver-white metal chain has a charming luster when you look closely, but it's very restrained.

Is it an alloy, I think it's impossible, was there an alloy in the era of Shizu? Have it?

I can't think about this question, after all, Shizu's encounter is too strange, you just tell me that the metal he brought back from Mars, I will also believe it.

From the metal aspect, I can't find the problem, I can only find it from the things engraved on the seal, but in addition to some formations and runes engraved on the seal, I really can't see anything, to put it funny, I even have a limited understanding of the runes and formations engraved on the seal, if you really want to study and think about it with interest, it is not an exaggeration to say, five years, I may have a certain understanding, but it is impossible to completely make these.

I said I didn't find it, but there was something a little bit wrong, so small that I wondered if I was too fastidious, so what was it? It's just that there are some tiny scratches on this metal chain, and I look disorganized, is this something wrong?

Just as I was researching with the metal chain, Brother Chengxin soon came back with a few bottles of red ink.

I put down the chain, and since I can't see anything myself, let's honestly follow the method that Master said.

Putting the red ink on the table, I also took the metal chains, nine in all, then opened a bottle of red ink, picked up one of the chains, and poured the red ink down from top to bottom.

The red ink flowed through the chain and quickly slid down, as if this metal chain had the characteristics of a divine soldier described in ancient times - killing without seeing blood! Because the blood will soon slip off the blade.

But there are runes and formations engraved on the chain, and ink is 'left' in those places, so that the runes and formations are more and more visible, but what is this? I don't understand, could it be that I can see the runes and formations more clearly?

After waiting for a while, there was no new change in the chain, we took a piece of paper and wiped the chain dry according to Master's instructions, but found that there was no change in the whole chain, and there were no clues.

What's going on? A few of us looked at each other, could it be that the master had a bad taste and was teasing us?

"Seiichi, what do you think?" Qin Huai, who is most interested in solving secrets, couldn't hold back at first, and hurriedly asked me.

I frowned slightly and pondered, but Brother Chengxin calmed down, took off his glasses and wiped them, and said: "What else can I think, Uncle Shi left a message saying that there are secrets on the metal chains, and he didn't say which metal chain has secrets, or all of them, so let's test all the metal chains again." ”

Brother Chengxin's opinion was correct, but it made me feel a lot calmer, so I didn't rush and tested each chain once, and in the end, we found something different.

Three of the chains left us with an incomprehensible pattern!

One of the chains, I remember, is the one I was sitting on the sofa and observing, and sure enough, those subtle scratches formed a pattern, and it turned out that the secret was really here!

However, as the note left by the Master said, use colored water to flow through the chain! With the naked eye, you can't see all these subtle scratches, and you won't think that this is a pattern.

What's even more wonderful is that I don't know what method the master used, these subtle scratches can keep the ink from dissipating, but the rest of the places cannot, I tried it with water, and the result was that the water could easily wash away these marks, so that I poured the ink again again, so that the pattern reappeared.

There is a reason why I want to do this, I am afraid that these patterns will be left like this, and they will be discovered by people with hearts, as for who is the person with a heart, I don't have a score in my heart, but I just have an intuition to do this!

But being able to wash it off easily reassured me.

All uncertainties have been eliminated, and all that remains is that we have to decipher these three patterns, and to be honest, these three patterns make me very speechless, just because I have never seen such a strange pattern, and it is impossible to associate it with any shape.

Let's ask who has the ability to think of some chaotic dots and lines into a figure, these three patterns can only be called patterns, what do they represent, we see a headache, and we can't see why.

This reminds me of Master's words, whether you can understand this secret or not depends on fate.

I clenched my fists and walked back and forth in the house irritably, and I really watched fate!

In this way, the four of us stared at the pattern on the chain for half an hour, no one put forward constructive suggestions, Brother Chengxin said decadently: "It seems that there is no fate, come on, let's solve it slowly in the future, I'll wash it clean." ”

I also sat on the sofa a little discouraged, yes, because I myself couldn't express any opinion on these three patterns, Ruyue comforted me softly, let me not worry, there was no clue originally, and we didn't have any arrangements for the future?

But after Ruyue said this, Qin Huai suddenly shouted: "Brother Chengxin, Brother Chengxin, don't wash, don't wash." ”

Brother Chengxin looked at Qin Huai inexplicably with the chain, but Qin Huai excitedly circled around the room, and then said to Ruyue: "Ruyue, what did you just say?" ”

"I said tell the third brother not to worry." Ruyue looked at Qin Huai inexplicably.

Qin Huai grabbed his hair anxiously and said, "It's not this, it's the sentence just now." ”

"I said, you don't have any arrangements for the future?" Ruyue is even more inexplicable!

"Hey, this is it!" Qin Huai suddenly became excited, and then asked me, "Chengyi, what are your future arrangements?" ”

I saw that Qin Huai was acting so strangely, and knew that this kid must know something, so he said in a muffled voice: "I'm in a hurry, so, please tell me the point!" ”

"Okay, good, to the point!" Qin Huai clapped his hands violently, and then said, "What's the point?" That is, your future arrangement is to sail, rivers, lakes and seas, I think of rivers, lakes and seas, all of a sudden I have a flash of inspiration, maybe I have some impressions. ”

"What?!" I stood up all of a sudden, Brother Chengxin was originally going to go to the bathroom to wash the three chains, but he also came back quickly, put the three chains on the table, and then pulled Qin Huai over, and said in a voice a little eagerly: "Say it quickly." ”

Qin Huai said: "I don't understand what these two things are, but I have some impressions of this!" You know my grandfather, I don't mean to show off, he is a military official, the old man likes to put a sand table when he has nothing to do, do a deduction, or study the map, think about military matters, and often like to pull me, tell me what strategic depth or something. ”

Brother Chengxin and I stared at Qin Huai's atmosphere and didn't dare to come out, let alone urge him, and Qin Huai didn't want to be verbose, and said directly: "Because of this, I often see the old man's maps, you know that military maps will not be open to the public, especially my grandfather's level can be seen, in short, I don't say anything else about those maps, many things are marked in detail!" At first, I looked at the pattern on the chain and I felt familiar, but I couldn't remember why it was familiar, so I didn't dare to say it."

When Qin Huai said this, he glanced at me and Brother Chengxin embarrassedly, while I took a deep breath and said, "I know, you have seen this pattern on a certain military map, right?" ”

"It's not that I've seen it, it's very similar to this small section of this pattern, by the way, there is a tributary of a big river on that map, and it's similar to it!" Qin Huai said to us with certainty.

The whole room was quiet as at least one of the chains meant something because of us!
